Spring Break

We just got back from Copper where we had some good ski action. I am so sore. I don't think I will be able to move tomorrow. And Morgan and I have matching sunburns on our faces, which will soon turn into goggle tans. We are just that cool.


The view of the sunrise from our cabin window.

I hope you are having a wonderful Spring Break. We are, minus the sunburns. I tried to take a picture of our sunburns, but the red didn't really show up in the photograph. Just use your imaginations :)

Saint Patrick's Day Parade

Today we went to the Saint Patrick's Day parade in downtown Fort Collins...



Bag pipes :)



As you can see, people get really into it...

Morgan and Liam (our friend John's son). 

Such a fun day! I love living in a town that celebrates silly things like St. Patrick's day. Monday, we are off to Copper for a few days. Then, we come back and tackle some projects around the house. In case you are curious about our chair, I am in the process of reupholstering it. Will I be sad to say goodbye to the 1980's Navaho-inspired fabric? No. No, I will not.

Happy Spring Break!!!

A Few Things

Hi everyone :) I am cozied up on the couch, thinking I will turn in early tonight. But first a few things...

1. Have you heard this song? I love it.

2. We are going to the St. Patrick's Day parade on Saturday. I am pretty excited about it. To say the least.

3. Spring Break is coming up next week. We are headed to Copper for more fun on the slopes. Since we can't go to the beach :)

4. The hunt for the perfect Easter dress starts now!





Sweet dreams, all :)

Rocky Mountain Oysters

Snowing again this morning...

Last night was the Young Life Capernaum Hoedown at Sundance Road House. There was line-dancing. And Rocky Mountain oysters. For those of you who don't know, Rocky Mountain oysters are deep-fried bull testicles. That people eat. Morgan got me to eat one before telling me what it was. It tasted like chicken... Very chewy chicken.

Tonight, we are having dinner with some friends. Another Southern Dinner. I can't wait.

P.S. I am excited to say that we are thinking about buying a house!!! We finally found one that we love. I will post photos soon. Right now, we are still praying that God would provide money for the deposit and that all would go well with the inspection!

Hunting for a House

Hi friends :) I just shared a cozy morning with my friend Beka. We sat on the couch and ate granola and caught each other up on life.

I have a day off today. Morgan and I are going to look at a house. We have been trying to find a house for awhile now. In Fort Collins, mortgage payments are much cheaper than rent (for the same size place). But we have not been able to find "the one". We've looked at a lot of houses. They all need a lot of love. But we have yet to fall head over heels. I would like a house that makes me feel like this:

Weather Games

Is it really Thursday??

What a crazy week. I am pooped.

Today, my friend Beka is coming for a visit. Morgan and I are taking her to Coopersmith's for dinner. Tomorrow, we may go to New Belgium and taste some beer. Or play outside if the weather's nice.



Speaking of the weather, it is totally playing games with my heart. I keep thinking spring is just around the corner. And then it snows again. {I wish I still had that sweet pink jacket}

p.s. We are hoping to work on our chair this weekend :)
